Chapter 211: Friendly Alliance

The hall discussion was not short in progress, the elders announced the general plan for recruiting monks, and Saidianchi received some useful information. But they are all outlines, and they are not very useful, at least they can't be used by Zhang Changan to track.

Soon, many documents were distributed, one for each of the thirteen chief priests. They will be responsible for directing and dispatching the monks in the various areas, which is the task. Sai Dianchi didn't immediately open the paperwork to read it, and so did the other chief priests, and everyone was very wary of each other, for fear that others would target the content of their mission.

Just now, the Great Elder had made it very clear that the meticulous work of the Western Regions Trading House was pervasive, and although the monks in the hall were not in danger, they were all very cautious, and their trust in their companions was being tested.

"In order to ensure that the conscription plan is not spied on by the Tang Dynasty, the part of the task that each of you is responsible for must not be disclosed to other chief priests, and you must not inquire into each other, otherwise you will be severely punished!"

The Great Elder at the top of the long table glanced at everyone, his face was solemn, full of irreversible momentum, "Familiarize yourself with the content of the task today, make corresponding preparations, and by tomorrow at the latest, you will have to go to your own area, and all errands must be completed within the specified time, and those who postpone will not be spared!"

Saidianchi put away his task paperwork, glanced left and right a few times, and finally his eyes fell on Kusu Nadine, seeing the other party's gloomy face and red eyes, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind: Should the other party be brought under his command?

The defeat of the Inspectorate at Qarakhan caused Khurnadine a great deal of culpability. Especially on the eve of the outbreak of the war, his plan to trap the great monks of the Tang Dynasty failed, and he was not caught, and his own men were attacked by the other party in various cities, resulting in heavy losses in the Supervision Yuan, and he himself was also subjected to criticism.

At this time, the other party should be urgent, wanting to find out more eyeliner of the Western Regions Commercial Houses in Dashi, make meritorious contributions, and wash away the shame. It would undoubtedly be very useful if you could grasp the actions of the other party.

Among the thirteen chief priests of the Great Temple, the Supervision Yuan, which specializes in dealing with commercial houses in the Western Regions, occupies four seats, and the weight is not small. Through the words of the Great Elder, Saidianchi speculated that in the process of the conscription operation, the elders would definitely have targeted arrangements in order to prevent the Tang Dynasty from sabotaging it.

Just as Saidianchi was planning like this, he saw Kusunadine looking at him, his eyes deep and full of inexplicable inquiry. This made Saidian's heart tighten, could it be that the other party had doubts about himself?

According to the friendship between the two in Qarahan, especially the last cooperation, the relationship between them is no longer ordinary, but it is strange that after the return of Khasu Nadine to Baghdad, he did not come to him.

You must know that he is a top nobleman, and his status is different from usual when he returns, so in order to reduce his guilt, he should go his own way. But I didn't know until I saw each other today that he had returned to Baghdad.

Thinking of this, Saidianchi already had a bad premonition in his heart. He quickly reviewed what he had done before, and he never thought that something had gone wrong with him would arouse the suspicion of Kusa Nadine.

"Maybe he's just suspicious of everyone?" said Saidianchi, reassuring himself. This is also as it should be, in Qarahan suffered such a big loss, and the defeat is not clear, Kusu Nadine should be vigilant for everyone.

Sensing the strangeness of Kusu Nadine, Sai Dianchi temporarily gave up his plan to win over the other party, and decided to observe it first, and then decide on the next arrangement after going back to discuss it with Zhang Changan.

Coming out of the conference hall, Saidianchi went to his class room and opened the task book for a quick look. He was in charge of the recruitment of monks in the area of Susa, not far from Baghdad, to the southeast, where the Great Eclipse was an important city.

Not being assigned to the recruitment of monks in charge of the Gyeonggi region of Baghdad, Saidianchi was a little disappointed. However, he was not angry, among the thirteen chief priests, he was not the only one who belonged to the top nobles, and two of them had a slightly higher status than him.

The conscription of monks around Baghdad must have fallen into the hands of those two. As long as it is not too far away from Baghdad, Saidianchi is willing to accept it, which is also in line with Zhang Changan's expectations.

Just when Saidianchi had already begun to think about how to act, he saw the contents at the end of the paperwork. This content made his heart move, and his eyes also shone brightly.

This was an additional order from the Supervisory Yuan, which allowed him to investigate the Tang Dynasty at the same time as he recruited monks. The key point is to send additional manpower to monitor and screen the monks under his command to prevent infiltration by the Tang Dynasty, and it comes with a plan to "lure the snake out of the hole".

"It seems that in order to deal with the Tang Dynasty's eyeliner and ensure the successful completion of the recruitment task, the elders have indeed spent a lot of effort. After reading the whole plan of "luring the snake out of the hole", Sai Dianchi only felt a chill rising from his back.

In the eyes of the elders, the Tang Dynasty's infiltration of the Great Food will definitely not be less than that of the Kara Khan, so in the process of implementing the conscription plan, the Tang Dynasty will definitely carry out sabotage operations as a support for the frontal battlefield.

In this plan, the elders deduced that the Tang Dynasty could do nothing more than two things: first, to assassinate the monks of the Great Temple, who presided over the conscription operations in various places, and second, to destroy the materials in the material assembly area and assassinate the monks in the monks' assembly area.

These two points will undoubtedly make the conscription operation face a great dilemma, if it is done successfully, it will definitely restore the strength of the New Moon Sect monks, even if it is not done well, causing riots and disrupting order, at least it can delay the monks' actions and buy time for the Tang army to attack in the front.

In the plan of "luring the snake out of the hole", in the process of recruiting monks and materials, the Crescent Sect will deliberately make the movement in some places bigger, lure the Tang Dynasty monks to act, turn the passive into the active, and ambush them, so as to achieve the purpose of killing and capturing the Tang Dynasty details.

After interrogating the Tang Dynasty, he was able to follow the vine and destroy the stronghold of the Western Regions Commercial Bank.

"This is not simply to ensure the smooth implementation of the conscription operation, the elders are just to take this opportunity to lure out the Tang Dynasty's eyeliner and strike again! If the operation is carried out like this, the Western Regions Commercial Bank will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and I am afraid that before the end of this war, it will lose the ability to act on a large scale!"

Sai Dianchi knew very well that Zhang Chang'an's action plan to sabotage the conscription plan was just as the elders expected. After all, there is no better choice for the Western Regions Commercial Bank. Acting in an enemy country, assassinating the Crescent Cult's top brass, and destroying supplies are the most effective ways to sabotage operations.

"Fortunately, I'm the chief high priest, and now I know this plan, otherwise the Western Regions Trading House will definitely suffer this time!" Saidianchi calmed down and put away the paperwork. Now he can't leave the Great Temple, so he has to gather his own people to arrange the internal affairs.

After most of the day's hectic work, Saidianchi arranged an errand to Susa City. In the early stage, he would not be himself, after all, it was all errands, and the people below would handle it. When the scale of monks and materials comes up, he will bring people over to preside over the overall situation.

"High Priest, Elder Mohad is out. ”

Sai Dianchi got the report and immediately got up and went out. He sent someone to watch Mohard's side, so that when he was on a business trip, he would meet the other party by chance, and then leave together, so that it would be convenient to get close on the way. It's not something out of the ordinary, and no one thinks much about it.

The two met in front of the gate, they were both acquaintances, and without much intention, they started talking to each other. When it comes to the hot place, Saidianchi consulted some big temples and spiritual issues, which are not very important but not important at all, and Mohard is more face-saving and knows everything.

This topic couldn't be finished for a while, so Saidianchi took the initiative to invite the other party to a nearby restaurant for a meal, everything seemed logical, and Mohard had no reason to refuse.

Of course, this level of familiarity is enough to be useful in ordinary times, and it is also common sense in interpersonal interactions, but at the moment the situation is tense, Saidianchi must quickly enter into a relationship with Mohadra, which is too insufficient.

To quickly associate with people, there are only two ways, to do what they like and solve people's problems. The effect of the latter is undoubtedly better than that of the former. But people don't always have difficulties, especially those in high positions. In this case, it is necessary to create difficulties for the other party.

Saidianchi didn't have to go to great lengths to create problems for Mohd, and when the war was unfavorable and Mullen recruited the monks of the whole country to go to the battlefield, no one could be left alone. There are many people like Mohd, but they are not top elites, and they can't shade the superiors of all the tribesmen, so they will naturally have troubles.

The key is only whether Saidianchi can solve this trouble for him.

When the two of them were eating at the wine shop, Mohad took the initiative to stir up the conversation, "This time the conscription order is issued, all the monks who meet the requirements will go to the east to participate in the war, especially the Qi cultivators, and there is no reason to stay. Poor my only grandson, who is only fourteen years old now, is going to fight in battle, he is still so young, and his life and death on the battlefield are unknown, it is really heart-wrenching. ”

Sai Dianchi showed enthusiasm today, and Mohard naturally did not go unnoticed. Since the other party intended to befriend him, Mohad was also willing to push the boat along the river, using Saidianchi's power to seek some benefits for his own people, so he began to try.

Saidianchi sighed and said with a serious face: "The situation in the country is like this, and when the caliph orders are issued, we can't help ourselves. However, the elder has served the country all his life and made countless feats, and now even his only grandson has to go to the battlefield, which is indeed undeserved. ”

Today, through the information provided by Zhang Changan, Saidianchi already has a deep understanding of Mohard, and naturally knows that the other party has not only one, but three. It's just that the other two are mediocre in talent and hope to go far on the path of cultivation, and the only one who will inherit the mantle of Mohd in the future is his little grandson.

Telling nonsense with his eyes open, and speaking sincerely, is a necessary ability for a superior official, Saidianchi knew that Mohad did not want to send his grandson to the battlefield, so he bit the word "only grandson" to death.

"The High Priest of Damascus has a good relationship with me, and I will visit him later, and the Elder's people need not worry. Saidianchi continued, looking genuinely worried about the king.

His words are true, as a top nobleman, Saidianchi has a wide range of contacts, and although his status in the Great Temple is not as good as that of Mohard, in terms of influence in the Great Food, it is not comparable to Mohard. For an existence like him, it is really simple to do some household registration skills, to deal with the upper and lower levels, and to deal with an errand.

Mohad's family is in Damascus, and before leaving the Great Temple, Saidianchi calculated that there are more than 200 monks in the other clan who are suitable for conscription, "As far as I know, the elders are thin in the clan, and the conscription of monks is controlled within 100 people, and the elders think the clan may bear it?"

When Mohard heard this, he was overjoyed, he was just a little tempted, and Saidianchi helped so much, which was really beyond his expectations.

Without waiting for him to express his gratitude, Saidianchi continued: "This time the monks go on the expedition, although they bring their own magic weapons, but for the elite monks, the state will still support them. It just so happens that my cousin can speak well on this matter, I see that the elder's clan has many people who have died in battle over the years, and such a meritorious family should be given preferential treatment in this battle, and more pills and magic weapons will be given. ”

Mohard's eyes lit up, a little more magic elixir, when he arrived on the battlefield, he would have one more life! The so-called meritorious family was naturally a rhetoric, and who in the big family of the Great Eater did not have a few monks who died in battle? His family was not very prominent in this regard.

"The High Priest is so helpful, I don't know what I can do for you?" Mohard calmed down and looked at Saidianchi and asked seriously, he didn't think that the other party would help him so much, he would have nothing to ask for.

Of course, Saidianchi will not say what he really thinks, but he helps the other party without expecting anything in return, which is unreasonable, and will lead Mohard to speculate that he has ulterior motives.

He had already prepared: "The first stage of the conscription operation is for the chief priest to gather monks and supplies in various places, and the second stage is to rush to the battlefield under the leadership of the elders. I hope that when I get to the battlefield, the elders can help me a little bit, so that I can have more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, and I can advance and retreat with evidence. ”

Hearing this, Mohard suddenly understood.

The war in the east is tense, except for the Great Elder, the other four elders of the Great Temple will go to participate in the war, and at that time, each elder can choose a part of his own personal guard from the recruited monks. The subordinates of these elders will undoubtedly take advantage of a lot, and under normal circumstances, dangerous places will not go, and others will not be able to rob them of the places of meritorious service.

If Saidianchi's people can follow Mohard, it will naturally be a good thing.

This is not to say that without Mohd, the people of Saidianchi will be in danger and will be in difficulty, after all, his identity is there. But Dormohard's help is undoubtedly useful.

"The High Priest is the Commander of the Nation, and it would be best if you and I could fight side by side!" Mohard immediately agreed. Sai Dianchi follows him, and Mohard can also enjoy the convenience brought by the other party's aristocratic privileges, and he will also benefit, which is unwanted.

The alliance of friendship was reached, and the two exchanged a drink and laughed when they met. With common interests, they have become grasshoppers on the same rope, and they feel very close to each other.
